Hello friends and happy Monday!

I am back again today with the cutest little I love you beary much card, featuring some goodies from the latest Happy Hearts Release from Honey Bee Stamps.

CARD RECIPE

  • This cute bear comes from the Heart Hugs Dies. I pieced him together and then added details using Copic Markers, a white gel pen, and added a little smile with a fine-tip black pen. I then gave him a heart to hold that I die cut 3 times and glued together, stamped with the "I" from the Love Love Love Stamps.
  • For the background, I used the Damask A2 Cover Plate to add the embossing details and then used the Scallop A2 Frame Dies to create the frame. I then ink-blended the bottom half of the panel to create an ombre gradient.

  • Next, I used the leftover die cuts from a previous card I made using the Love A2 Cover Plate. I then die-cut another layer using red cardstock and added it to the top of the stacked letters.
  • For the "you" sentiment, I used the Foil Script: Love HFP and Dies that I foiled using Red Glimmer Foil with the Hot Foil System.

Love is in the Air Valentines Day Card | Studio Katia



Hello, my sweet friends!

Are you feeling the valentine's crafty itch yet? I am starting to get there. The more and more I see of Valentines online the more I feel it's OK to move on from the Holiday mode.

Today's cute card features mostly new goodies from Studio Katia's latest Valentine's release. 

CARD RECIPE

Since this card is pretty self-explanatory, I won't bore you with all the steps. (Plus, I am trying to limit my screen time on the computer to decrease stress on my eye right now. Please do leave me a comment if you have questions though). I am sure you can figure it all out by looking at the supplies I linked below. 


Have a wonderful day and I hope you do have Love in the Air, cause we could all use that right now!


Thank you for stopping by and until next time... Happy Crafting!

Birthday Balloon Shaker Card | Honey Bee Stamps

Hello friends and Happy 2023! 

Yes, this is my first post of the New Year, so I wanted to wish you all the best and thank you all for your support over the years. 

EYE UPDATE: As I have mentioned recently I have been struggling with the vision in my left eye, I barely see anything out of it now. What I do see is mostly shapes and colors, no detail. Because of that, I have been limiting my screen time. For now, I am patching my left eye to avoid straining it when I am online, and still trying to figure out how to decrease the stress on my good eye. I am hoping my left-side vision will stabilize and improve, I just don't want it to get worse. Thankfully, I have a great team of doctors that are following me closely and I am so thankful for all the support I have received. Don't worry I will still be creating just less often, so I am hoping you still will stick with me.

If you saw my last post, you will recognize the similarities between the two backgrounds. I loved my last background so much that I had to recreate the rainbow background again, but this time using balloons from Honey Bee Stamps. Birthday cards are definitely my favorite cards to make and shakers just make the best birthday cards because they are like a party on their own. 

CARD RECIPE

  • To begin, I used one of the stencils from the Layering Balloon Stencils and started by blending the yellow ink in the center, followed by the pink ink on top and then the blue on the bottom. When you overlap with the previous color it results in a rainbow blend. Repeat the process with the top layer of the stencil. Use light pressure when blending to create somewhat of a transparent effect.
  • Once the background is done, add double-sided tape to the back and secure 3 of the shaker pocket tabs. I filled the pocket with Bokeh Lights Confetti and sealed the last tab. Remove the protective plastic layer from the pocket if it has one.
  • Attach the finished shaker pocket to a card base.

A card like this would be easy to mass-produce and have on hand for upcoming birthdays. Change up the colors to make switch things up and make the cards more personal. I think I may have to take my own advice and make some for my stash as I am always running low.

I hope you got some inspiration from today's Birthday Balloon Shaker Card. Thank you for stopping by and until next time... Happy Crafting!
